Abstract:

“Despite rapid advances in RNA medicine, many programs fail due to poorly suboptimal designs and quality issues that conventional assays fail to detect. Addressing these challenges requires both effective design algorithms and advanced analytics that provide mechanistic insight into RNA therapeutic activity and safety.

In this seminar, Dr. Wayne Doyle (Eclipsebio) will discuss how sequencing-based approaches reveal key insights for the development of siRNA and mRNA therapeutics. Key topics include multidimensional profiling of target RNAs, AI-powered drug design, and sequencing-based characterization of mRNA medicines.”
